Frequently Asked Questions:
Q: How can I ensure that my project is fully funded by the one-time donation?
Your project’s total goal must be lower than the $500 one-time donation amount. The total project goal is shown on your project as you’re carting materials. If your total project goal is higher than $500, your project will require additional funding from the DonorsChoose community in order to be fully funded and receive materials.
Q: How is information gathered about my school?
We receive our school data from a third party vendor called MDR. You can find out your school’s designation by visiting your school page through your teacher profile page.

Q: How can I edit my project?
If your project has not received any donations, you can make any edits by returning your project to draft status. You can do this by heading over to the Projects section of your account and clicking on the "Return project to draft" button underneath your project title. Once your project is in draft status, you can make any edits and resubmit it. Then, it will be re-screened by our team and re-posted if eligible. Read more about editing your project.
Q: Do Essentials lists qualify for this funding opportunity?
No. Donations placed to an Essentials list will not be matched by this funding opportunity. Essentials lists are currently not eligible to receive matching donations from any funding opportunity. You can read more about Classroom Essentials in our Help Center.
